Unless your parents can still claim you as a dependent, your age has nothing to do with anything. As far as non-traditional goes, your hoops might be slightly different than if you were on a degree path, but maybe not. I would fill out the
FAFSA and apply for Pell (those are both done in the same step), and get in touch the financial aid department at the university and see what else they recommend.
